Black History of the Day

It being "Black History Month" and all (Frankly, ANY month, or any DAY for that matter, can be a "history" related event), I thought it apropos to educate those with their heads in the sand about the topic of race

Flashback of the day

interesting. Wonder if Obama knows any MORE Black History?

10 years to the day - nine eleven

Bob Parks originally created this for the 1st anniversary and published it in 2007, but reworked the video and published this in 2010



I was infinitely happy when Bin Laden was killed on May 1st



and I still feel we GOT Bin Laden thanks to President George W. Bush's policies

Anniversary..OO-RAH!

Today marks the 234th anniversary of the creation of the United States Marine Corps.

They've fought countless battles, lost countless comrades-in-arms, but at the same time done an incalculable amount of good for the Unites States of America and Freedom in general abroad

We can never thank you enough

Maybe he WILL be like FDR & JFK...

Apparently, Mr. Obama's head never ceases to get bigger, as he sees himself resembling FDR & JFK.

For starters, FDR was a joke



and JFK only did so much for the country, but the commonality of them was that there were laws created because of what happened with them. Think about it. FDR served 3 full terms even though he didn't finish his 4th term due to his death in 1945. Terms limits were instated soon after to just two terms for a sitting president. I still wonder why we haven't passed term limit laws for Congress, but that's another can of worms all together. Next we go to JFK. Now, laws and regulations were passed because unfortunately he was assassinated. In the decades since his untimely death, the motorcade has become decidedly more protected and remains so to this day, no more open presidential limos



So I get to thinking - Obama may be another Democrat to have strict laws and regulations come about because of what happened to him. As soon as the courts grow a pair and stop listening to these lawyer firms with million dollar cash retainers funding them, screaming "technicality" on the issue of Obama's eligibility




we can get something done and have stricter laws put in place to force future candidates running for any major office to show us their birth certificates

it remains to be seen if this will actually happen...
